First: avoid all kinds of stimulating diet, such as liquor, strong coffee, strong tea, raw garlic, etc. At the same time, avoid eating too hard, too soft, too spicy, too cold, too hot, too rough food. Eat slowly to chew, so that the food fully mixed with saliva, to help digestion and reduce the stimulation of the stomach.

Second: stomach pain, try to loosen the belt, usually also try to wear comfortable loose clothes, in order to avoid abdominal pressure. For patients who often have gastric acid reflux at night, it is better to use the sleeping position with the right side up and the left side down, and at the same time, put the head up to avoid gastric acid reflux. People who often have stomachache should not eat immediately before or after intense exercise to prevent stomach overload and gastritis.
